My Cousin the Algorithm

When Carlos' Instagram feed suddenly filled with conspiracy theories and contempt dressed up as content, he wanted to know what went wrong.

In this episode of Carbon & Keel, he and Sam follow the trail back to two videos and a harder question. Who does the algorithm think you are? What begins as a conversation about social media becomes something more personal—about trust, cynicism and how easily the world comes to look like the feed in front of you.
